This lightweight woven fabric, weighing under 300 g/m², contains over 85% fine animal hair including cashmere from Kashmir goats, carded for a soft texture. It falls under HTS 5111.11.70.30 due to its high fine animal hair content and carded processing, distinguishing it from combed varieties. Ideal for luxury apparel like scarves and shawls.
